Visual hierarchy; The arrangement of visual elements on the page according to their order of importance. Designers use visual hierarchy to direct the reader’s attention to key points, starting with the focal point. Before applying emphasis you need to establish a visual hierarchy. Used in graphic design to emphasize important elements and organize content in a logical manner (PS 24)
Focal point - The visual element or part of a page that is most emphasized and catches the reader’s eye first.
Accents - Secondary or tertiary focal points.
Visual weight is the illusion of physical weight of a visual element on a page.
Size, color, boldness, and texture of a visual element contribute to its visual weight.
Images carry more visual weight than body copy, as people tend to look at images before text.
In determining balance the visual weight of each element must be considered and counterbalanced with other elements on the page.
After viewing the Sauve ad, write a paragraph describing the visual hierarchy (identify the elements in order of importance) , focal point and accents. Be sure to include the words visual hierarchy, focal point and accent. Add your name and date, place in the assignment bin on Mr. Salzman's desk
